Noro Kibou hand-woven scarves

Why is it that for the last week I have been reminiscing on my various trips to Japan to see the cherry blossom.  A park in Kagoshima with a 1000 cherry trees in full bloom; historic Kyoto with streets lined with flowering trees.
Coming back to earth I realise that I am hand-weaving a Noro Kibou yarn with new growth colours on a warp of wisteria coloured 100% Australian alpaca from Tailored Strands.  The wisteria, or my cherry blossom, shimmering in the breeze in the two patterns that I have used.  Two delightful scarves with a special look and lovely feel.
These two scarves are nominally 1800mm x 200mm and weigh 145g.  See them soon at Aspects of Kings Park or The Artisan Store Fremantle.
